Dubrovnik 5K one again shows humanitarian heart - let's run for Ante!

Every year, the Du Motion 5K race on the city streets of Dubrovnik attracts more and more people from Dubrovnik and across the globe. And the race every year has a humanitarian heart with the money raised donated towards a good cause. On the 28th of April hundreds of runners in blue shirts will take part in this year’s Dubrovnik 5K.

"The response of people every year really motivates us, from schoolchildren and students to entrepreneurs, retirees and very often to entire families, all of whom come together to participate and help a good cause,” commented the organisers of Du Motion.

“We are running this year to raise awareness of the need for greater caution in traffic, all revenue from the Dubrovnik 5K is intended for the rehabilitation of 20-year-old Ante Kolunđija, a volunteer of Du Motion who was injured in a car accident last year,” added the Director of Du Motion, Alen Bošković.

The Neuro-rehabilitation performed by Polyclinic Glavić is intended for patients who, due to various accidents or illnesses, have weakened or completely blocked extremities of the body.

"It is about robotic neuro rehabilitation, the most modern and effective treatment concept with the help of the most sophisticated robotics and conventional physiotherapy therapies. The concept and treatment program at Glavić Polyclinic are individually tailored to each patient depending on his diagnosis and medical condition. Ante, who has rehabilitation up to 9 hours every day in order to achieve a faster recovery, has already seen excellent results,” commented Mirna Golubić, the deputy polyclinic therapist.
